board and turned over to ithe town
council fg a further payment on the
cost of the town irrigation system,

At the previous board mieéting’ Mr.
Bredin had given notice of motion,
and the motion was put at the last
meeting, with the argunient that the
board had obligated itself: for the
payment of $3,000 in addition to the
$2,000 cash which they, agreed o
turn over to the tOwn as soon. as the
building of the project was com-
pleted, :

The motion obligating the board
to the payment of thé sum of $3,900
for the irrigation project was put
through some considerable time ago.
This motion was again read at the
meeting. The motion stated that
the board was obligated to turn over
to he town for the payment of the
irrigation system, ail reasonable
amounts up to the extent of $3,000.
Mr. Bredin contended that the $3,000
obligation was meant to be in addi-
tion to the S00 eash already pro-
mised.

Mr. MeLaws took lamue wkh Mr.
Bredin, contending that the $3,000
obligation tneluded the $2,000 cash
payment which the board was to pay
as soon as the project was completed.
Backing up his arguments with ex-
tracts from the minute book and by
reading a pontion of the town irri-
gation by-law, Mr. McLaws gave a
Jengthy explanation of hia side of
the question. He contended that as
the board had already paid to the
town the sum of. $2,800, they still

ment to Mr. Bredin’s motion. The
amendment was to the efféct that the
Board of Trade pay to the Town of
Bassano the sum of $200 in full re-
tirement of the board’s obligation to
the town in respect to the irrigation
project. s

A. T. Connolly sided with Mr.
Bredin, and étated that the board
was responsible’ for the irrigation
project to the extent of $6,000. A.
-G. Bond supported Mr. McLaws, and
contended that the evidence showed
the board had gote on record as
being obligated for only $3,000. He
stated, however, that should the irri-
gation project be in need of further
assistance, he would be in favor of
giving it. On a vote the amend-
ment carried by a small majority.

Bmall Attendance

The attendance at the meeting was
rather small, only about sixteen
members being present. President
EB. P. Currie was in the chair,

Some’ discussion occurred in re-
gard to the best method of raising
funds for the swimming pool. It
was suggested that a’ subscription
be taken up, and another suggestion
was that money be raised by putting
on @ carnival and dance. It was
finally decided that the board
recommend the committee to put on
a carnival and dance.

Money for Weeds

The motion presented by H. W.
Ford, that the board assiat the town
council in the destruction of weeds
to the extent of contributing $50 for
this purpose, wae carried, .

HEAVY HAIL
LOSS IN .1927

Worst jn History of the Province—
Bassano District Escapes

The season of 1927 has seen a tre-
mendous hail loss in the province of
Alberta. It is the heaviest loss ex-
perienced in the history of the pto-
vince, and amounts to the sum of
a little less than $2,600,000 on insur-
ed crops, This is a big increase
over 1926 when the losses totalled
only $680,000. ,

The Basgano district escaped hail
damage this year, Several times
the danger threatened, but Wothing
more than a few small stones fell
which were harmless, Consider-
able daw&ge was done in the Hussar
district, and Gem also suffered, and
Rosemary and Countess got off with
very little loss.

New Rates

The rates for hail insurance carried
under the municipal plan for 1927
have now been set by the hail in-
surance board of Alberta,
~The volume of business written
shows an inerease of almost 40 per
cent Compared with last year,
1,139,000 acres being insured in 1926
and 1,561,000 in 1927. There were
10,047 appNeations for insurance and
more than 5,000 of these were claim-
ants. Mr, Tovell stated that after
using practically all of the reserve
fund built up in the past eight years

| the board still found it necessary to

set rates in gome portions of the pro-
vinee higher than ever before. The
province was divided into six differ-
ent classes of districts which for con-
venience are called A, B, C, D, B,

and F. (Class A has a rate of 18 per
cent; B 16 per cept; Class C
10 per cent; Class D 8 pey cent;

(Brooks Bulletin)
It is clearly evident that the alfal-
fa seed crop of the Kastern Irrigation
block is going to be extremely light
This ¢ ndition, however, from various
reports to hand, seems to also exiat
throughout a large portion of the
United States and Eastern Canada.

Rapid City, South Dakota, reports

the alfalfa seed crop as only 16 per,
cent of last year and the smallest
crop in fifteen years.

Mr. W. J. Lennox, Dominion Gov-
ernment Seed Ins) r for Western
Ontario, who wag a recent visitor in
town, informed the manager of the
Grimm Alfalfa Seed Growers’ Asso-
ciation that the alfalfa seed crop in
Ontario would be very light, and in
Peel County which normally has a
very heavy yield of seed, the crop
this year would be about 7 pér cent
of last year’s yield.

With the prospects for such a
light yield of seed it is anticipated
that the price will be much higher
than in former years. Therefore it
would be advisable for those having
alfalfa seed crops that give promise
of yielding even a fair prop, to give
their attention to saving it.

GARLAND GIVES
VIEWS ON COAL
FREIGHT RATES

E.'J. Garland, Progressive member
for Bow River Riding, has expressed
surprise and keen regret at the re-
cent findings of the Railway Commis-
sion on the Alberta-Ontario coal
freight rates. Having attended every
sitting of the Railway Board, and
purposely remaining over in Ottawa
to assist those. engaged in putting
rents Alberta’s ‘and Ontario's

tive” "eh local payee says he js at
a losg to determine what influenced

the commissioners to recommend
such a high out of pocket rate As
$7.22.

Mr. Garland says the fight is not
over ‘by any means. It has but en-
tered another stage, and after the
Alberta and Ontario governments
come together on a basis upon which
they can approach the dominion gov-
ernment, he feels that the governe
ment of Canada will bend its ener-
gies toward a solution of larger
home markets for Canadian coal.
The scene has shifted te the parlia-
ment of Canadg, and he feels that all
parties are seized with the import-
ance of the necessity of a re-adjust-
ment of the burden of transportation
of the basic products of the different
provinces to their respective markets
.

‘The Jatest preliminary estimate of the yields of the. principal grain |
crops, issued by the Canadian Goyernment Bureau of Statistics, based upon

, reports from all parts of the Dominion, predicts a wheat crop of 458,741,000
for this year, the second largestjcrop ever grown in Canada. The record}
crop was in 1923, which totalled 474,199,000 bushels, This year’s wheat crop |
is. estimated at 48,930,000 bushels}more than last year’s yield and-promises |
an average®yield per acre of 20.4 bushels per acre.

The three great grain gréwing provinces of Canada, Manitoba, |
Saskatchewan and Alberta, will produce 432,228,000 bushels of this
year’s total crop of wheat as compared with $83,440,000 bushels in
1926.

Thére has been: considerable; damage from rust this year in various
sections of Saskatchewan and Manitoba, and when final threshing returns,are
in, thé government’s estimate tay be considerably lowered, The Manitoba
Free Press»estimates the wheat *crop of the three prairie provinces for
_the year 1927 at 424,312,125, which is some eight million bushels less than |
the government estimate. This paper's estimate of the Oat crop of the three

» prairie provinces is also considerably lower than that of the government
and in the final analysis may prove to be more nearly correct, as with the
exception of Alberta and the western part of Saskatchewan, the oat crop
has been rather, disappointing, Rust and frost has caused a lot of damage. |
Howover,-there can be no question but that this year’s crop throughout
the west will-be well above the average.

A néw high record of wheat production has been established in Alberta
this season with a crop new estimated at 168,862,000 bushels, an increase
of 24,028,000. bushels over.the -prevyious bumper crop grown in 1923, But |
not Only wheat promises a bumpef yield this year; oats, barley, rye and other
grains as well.as the whole range of field and orchard crops promise record |
tetutns. The 1927° crop. of 16,524,000 tons of hay and clover from 10,157,836

» acres is the, largest yield ever recorded jn Canada.

a The yield.of Oats has also been good with an estimated production of

502 199, 0 00 bushels, of which 332,494000 bushels were produced in the

Prairie Provinces, Particularly good crops are being harvested in both

Saskatchewan and Alberta and the estimate for the Prairie Provinces

is. the second largest, shown. In 1923. it was estimated that 391,756,000 |

bushels were harvested in Western Canada. The 1927 production of barley
is expected to he 98,000,000 bushels, and rye 17,462,000 bushels.
Though good weather is still required for the completion of threshing

The Terre Of ‘Thirst

Nothing Else Holds Ag Much Fear
For Explorers

Thirst is the greatest terror of the
explorer. In Central Asia is the Gobi
Desert, a vast sunbaked, waterless
region, devoid of trees, plants, ®r any
living thing: Only one man has ever
| penetrated it.

That was Seven Hedin, the Swedish
explorer, who made a “dash” from
| one end of the desert to the other. He
accomplished the feat after losing all

his own life ag well,

During last year over two hundred
expedjtions set out from this country
and the United States to explore our
unknown world. Yet so well does Na-
ture guard her secrets that it will be
many years before we can say that
we know all there is to be known
about the earth on which we live.

Descendant Or Ancestor

| Easier To Be Former Than Latter
Said Roosevelt

Theodore Roosevelt once said,
so much easier to be a descendant
than an ancestor.” Perhaps no one
knows this better than does the man
who is always talking about what his
ancestors have done, yet ig all the
while doing nothing noteworthy him-
{ett It is never easy to'do some-
thing great or useful or helpful. It's
a great deal easier to talk about oth-
ers who have done great things. We
need to remember that while we have
a right to be proud of what our an-
cestors have done we have no right to
stop with pride, If we would do our
whole duty to {he world, we must
make it possible for our children to
be proud of their ancestors also.

THE ORIGIN

Did man originate from a more

recently stirred wp another contro-
versy on the subject in Bngland.
Charles Darwin, th¢ famous English
anthropologist, was the first to pub-
lish a book on the origin of man.
Darwin's work appeared in 187i, and
laver, in 1874, Brnest Haeckel pub-
lished “The Bvolution-ef Man” which
added further evidence in support of
Darwin's beliefs. The Christian
ehurch has been opposed to Darwin,

‘lreeently Dr, EB. W. Barnes, bishop of

Birmingham, created consternation
in the ranks of the theologians when
‘he preached a sermon in which he
sided with the teachings of Darwin.
And now the battle is on, the modern-
ist ministers on the one side support-
ing Darwin, and the fundamentalists
on the other clinging desperately to
the fast crumbling stronghold of the
old church dogmas.
Darwin's contentions — first
not only by the church, but also by
some of his fellow gcientis’s. Later,
as the revealing light of truth burned
stronger and _ brighter, Darwin's

teachings were accepted by the world: -

of ‘science, and the unanimous re-
sisbence of the church was weakened
by the winning over to Darwin's side
of some of his early opponents in
the chureh. Today we are witness-
ing the remarkable speciacle of
many more ministers throwing over-
board the old belief in special crea-
tion and supporting the Darwinian
doetrine that man evolved from a
lower form of life and through the
long ages has gradually lifted himself
upto what he is today. A

Darwin’s assertion that man has
sprung from an apelike animal has

It was over Minnie that Helmi had
her first quarrel with Mrs,.Wymuth.
‘Minnie’s home was inthe eountry,
where the crops had falled; and Min-
nie had. come to the city to find work.
There had been no harvest to cut,
so it seemed best for Minnie to come
| away. Only sixteen, innocent and
| trusting. Minnie had come to the
great city. She wanted money to get
shoes for the little ones at home, and
for her mother, too. Minnie’s love
for her mother was very deep and
beautiful. Her mother had been s0
brave and sweet through all their bad
years,

Minnie had worked in the home of
a prospector, a man who had found
gold in the north—gold running in the
sands of a river—and he had traced |
‘dt back until he found the deposits.
He would be the richest man in the
world some day, His wife went to
the coast for the winter. “He told

Then ‘came the avalanche of
prayers, led most noisily of all by
Miss Lamb. Some of the other girls

at 16 years of age has recently been

that Jad from hig picture to become

the world’s.foremost inventor. | He
looked like a very ordinary boy;
rather stupid, perhaps. His eyes

wore a sleepy look—not at all like the
eyes of a person who would get along
the major part of his life with less
than half the amount of steep requir-
ed by the average person.

What rating would. young Edison
have received on an intelligence test,
1927 model? How many of his teach-
ers would have recognized in him
latent ability of a high order likely
to become of utmost service to the
human race?

To say that what ‘he had in him
was bound to come out regardless is
to deny the necessity of education.
With some individuals the aid and
encouragement of friendly and _ in-
spiring teachers may be less needful
than with others, Potential greatness
has often been developed by the faith
that a true teacher has shown in a
youth Jacking confidence in his own
powers. On the other hand, many such
youths must have heen lost to the
world through the blindness of teach-
ers and parents to the very gifts
which made them unlike the common
run of human beings,

Educators must be eternally vigil-
ant to discover young Edisons and
raise them to their greatest possibill-
ties. -

There is no evidence that the size
of the brain has anything to do with
intelligence. Men are larger than wo-

men, therefore they have larger but |

not necessarily better brains. Turgen-
jeff, the Russian novelist, had an ex-

ceptionally large brain, only exceeded |

by two others; one of the others was
an imbecile. Next in weight came a
laborer and a bricklayer. The largest
woman’s brain recorded weighed 1,-

more of a handicap than a small foot

Canada can claim a highly credit-

first nation to grant free transpofta-

literature. This step wis accomplish-
ed in 1908 by Sir William Mulock,
now Chief Justice of Ontario.

Its vast importancs cam only be
comprehended when the weight and
bulk of an embossed book is consid-
ered. It requires thirty-nine Braille
volumes to accommodate the Bible.
An ordinary Bible can be purchased
for 25 cents; the price of the Braille
Bible is $22. Gibbons’ “Decline and
Fall” requires nearly twelve feet of
shelf space and is so popular it is

which for years have been the most

have credit for restoring to good
jhealth thousands and thousands of
people who have suffered from some
of the many ailments that come
through weak, watery blood

The correction of anaemic condi-

as certain as anything can be. As
| proof of this Miss Margaret A, Smith,
Burgoyne, Ont., says:—‘After having
|a severe attack of jaundice I was left
in a very weak and run-down condi-
